provision of an improved stitched-down shoe' for children, though theadvantages claimed for this construction are not limited to childrensshoes. Y

Further objects ofthe invention will be apparent from the specificationand drawings in which K Fig.k l is a side elevation partly in sectionshowing my improved shoe.

F ig. 2 is across-sectional View along the line 2 2 of Fig. 1.

Fig. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view along the line 3-3 of Fig. 2.

A leather sock lining l of the shape of the proposed shoe is cemented toa felt cushion 2, clearly shown in Figs. 2 and 3, the sock lining lextending over the edge of the cushion 2. The inner sole 3 is thencemented to the underside of the cushion 2, the inner sole extending tothe edge of the shoe the same as the sock lining l. The upper 4 has aninner lining 5 sewn thereto in the conventional manner.

The upper l with its lining 5, the sock lining l, the cushion 2, and theinner sole 3, are now stapled together by means of the staples y 6.

It should be understood that between the different layers of leathershown, and between the sock lining l and the cushion 2, there aresuccessive layers of cement, so as to further reinforce the constructionof the shoe.

The upper lining is however not cemented to the upper l, except at theedges thereof.

Having fully described my invention, what I claim is A shoe comprisingan upper and a lining cemented together at their outer edges, a socklining of leather to which a felt cushion is secured, said telt cushionbeing otl smaller area than the sock-lining, an inner sole cemented tothe under side of the felt cushion and having an outer edge portion onwhich the extended edge of the sock lining rests, and an outer solecemented to the inner sole, said upper and lining being outturned overthe extended edge of the sock lining, staples securing said upper,lining, sock lining, and inner sole together, a welt, and a line ofstitches securing said welt, upper, lining, sock lining, inner sole, andouter sole together.

ln testimony whereof I affix my signature.
